Book Description
About the Book
This book is a comprehensive guide to building robust, scalable, and maintainable enterprise applications by applying the principles of Domain-Driven Design (DDD) with Spring Boot and functional programming techniques. It provides developers with a strategic framework to manage and navigate the complexities of modern software development, placing deep domain knowledge at the core of the architecture.
By focusing on both strategic and tactical design patterns, the book empowers you to create systems that are not only technically sound but also genuinely aligned with business needs. It shifts the focus from purely technical implementation to capturing the intricate rules and processes of the business domain you are working in.
Key Learnings and Topics Covered:
-
DDD Fundamentals: Dive deep into the core principles of DDD, including the use of a Ubiquitous Language to bridge the gap between technical and business teams. Learn to model complex business processes accurately.
-
Strategic & Tactical Design: Master strategic patterns like Bounded Contexts and Context Mapping to decompose large systems into manageable, loosely coupled components. Implement tactical patterns such as Aggregates, Entities, and Value Objects to structure your domain logic effectively.
-
Spring Boot Implementation: Discover how Spring Boot's features, like dependency injection and the repository pattern, naturally support DDD principles. The book provides practical examples for implementing aggregates, data access layers, and domain model validation.
-
Event-Driven Architecture: Learn to build reactive and resilient systems by implementing event-driven architectures. The book covers creating, publishing, and handling domain events within a Spring Boot application to enable asynchronous communication and loose coupling.
-
Functional & Reactive Programming: Enhance your domain models with functional programming concepts. Explore immutability to create predictable and thread-safe domain objects, and leverage reactive programming with Spring WebFlux to build responsive, non-blocking applications.
